1895 N300 Mayo's Cut Plug John Clarkson

Graded EX 60 by SGC. 1895 N300 Mayo's Cut Plug of Hall of Famer John Clarkson. A very attractive example of one of Clarkson's most impressive cards. The card has no creases, just some light edge and corner wear as is almost always the case with Mayos due to their condition-sensitive flush-to-the-border design. Though a relatively small set at just 48 cards, Mayos are the premier 1890s baseball card issue. They have always been considerably rarer than N172 Old Judges, and as the interest in Old Judges has continued to grow, collector interest in Mayos is understandably beginning to follow as well. The Mayo set includes many of the most striking portrait cards of many very significant players. Reserve $1,000. Estimate $2,000/$3,000.SOLD FOR $2,320.00
